Sedona News – The Sedona International Film Festival is proud to present the summer encore of the Met Opera’s “La Bohème” (from the 2017-18 season) on Saturday, July 27 at 12 p.m. at the Mary D. Fisher Theatre.
An exciting young cast stars in Franco Zeffirelli’s classic production of “La Bohème”, the most-performed opera in Met history. Sonya Yoncheva stars as Mimì opposite Michael Fabiano as the passionate writer Rodolfo. Susanna Phillips reprises the role of the flirtatious Musetta and Lucas Meachem sings the role of her lover, the painter Marcello. The cast also features Alexey Lavrov and Matthew Rose as Rodolfo and Marcello’s friends Schaunard and Colline and Paul Plishka as Benoit and Alcindoro in this performance, led by Marco Armiliato.
“La Bohème”, the passionate, timeless, and indelible story of love among young artists in Paris, can stake its claim as the world’s most popular opera. It has a marvelous ability to make a powerful first impression and to reveal unsuspected treasures after dozens of hearings. At first glance, “La Bohème” is the definitive depiction of the joys and sorrows of love and loss; on closer inspection, it reveals the deep emotional significance hidden in the trivial things — a bonnet, an old overcoat, a chance meeting with a neighbor — that make up our everyday lives.
The 2024 Met Opera Summer Encores are generously sponsored by Chris Fladlien and Bea Hanks.
“La Bohème” from the Metropolitan Opera will be shown at the Mary D. Fisher Theatre on Saturday, July 27 at 12:00 p.m. Tickets are $15 general admission, or $13 for Film Festival members.
